2025 Brush Removal Program

Due to the continued necessity to conserve resources, brush removal for 2025 will be limited to ONE pick up period from May 12 – May 15. No alternative rain dates are planned.

Public Works will only make a single pass through the City of Caribou. All brush and leaves must be curbside by the morning of May 12 by 6:00AM and pick up is limited to one load per residence. The crews will only collect in each neighborhood once, and will not make multiple passes. Any brush or leaves brought curbside after May 15th WILL NOT be removed by Public Works.

Those in rural Caribou must call Public Works at (207) 493-4211 to let them know to pick up.

The City asks for your cooperation to make this removal program as cost effective and beneficial as possible for the continued maintenance of our community.
